flash memory, enter a command such as the following.
PowerConnect#ncopy tftp 2001:7382:e0ff:7837::3 primary.img flash primary
This command uploads the primary boot image named primary.img from a TFTP server with the
IPv6 address of 2001:7382:e0ff:7837::3 to the device primary storage location in flash memory.
Syntax: ncopy tftp <ipv6-address> <source-file-name> flash primary | secondary
The tftp <ipv6-address> parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify this
address in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
The <source-file-name> parameter specifies the name of the file you want to copy from the TFTP
server.
The primary keyword specifies the primary location in flash memory, while the secondary keyword
specifies the secondary location in flash memory.
Uploading a running or startup configuration from an IPv6 TFTP server

enter a command such as the following.
PowerConnect#ncopy tftp 2001:7382:e0ff:7837::3 newrun.cfg running-config
This command uploads a file named newrun.cfg from a TFTP server with the IPv6 address of
2001:7382:e0ff:7837::3 to the device.
Syntax: ncopy tftp <ipv6-address> <source-file-name> running-config | startup-config
The tftp <ipv6-address> parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify this
address in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
The <source-file-name> parameter specifies the name of the file you want to copy from the TFTP
